It's always either I have the time but I don’t know what to blog or I don’t have the time but I know what I want to blog.
Currently, I’m having my IPP. And it was very different from my FYP. For my FYP project, I must say I was really lucky. Because the DUET's server and software is not ready so what I need to do was all read, understand and then present the contents. And not forgetting that my supervisor, Mr Ho WC, was nice. He didn't give us much pressure.
Because FYP was all about reading the document again and again (because need to understand), I basically slacked my precious time away doing other thing. Reading the same documents was real boring and it made me sleepy every time. I felt my time was wasted in school. I facebook everyday. I went to the other big lab which is far from my lab, to find friends and stayed there for hours. I took my own sweet time to eat my breakfast, lunch, break and even went to gym. I slept in the lab and got caught by Ms Yarny like once. I read Jodi Picoult's storybook and got caught by my independent maker, Mr Ang KK, which was before the mid-term presentation.
Still remember, I didn't do very well for my Mid-Term Presentation. Both Mr Ang and Mr Ho said I read from script when I was presenting my slides which I thought I only referred. Mr Ang asked questions that I don’t know how to answer. After the presentation, I knew I not going to do very well, I felt really sad but what's done cannot be undone.
Final Presentation was on the last day, last timing of FYP. Despite, the numbers of rehearsal going through the slides together with teammates and rehearsal my part thousands times, I was still extremely nervous and worry before the presentation. The feeling was double as compared to the Mid-Term Presentation.
That day, reached the computer lab. Setup, and we rehearsal one round for supervisor. He corrected us what are the things to take note when presenting to independent marker. I did not bring any card too. When Mr Ang appeared, I got more nervous. But I told myself it's the last chance and I had did my preparation for the presentation, so "just do my best.". I believed and glad that I really did my best, although when presenting the demo I did not say what I planned to but the presentation was smooth.
And my worry was extra because Mr Ang did not ask many questions like he did during the Mid-Term Presentation. In fact, he said he only going to asked one question, which is something like "what is the benefit of duet." (Can’t remember the exact question.) I was so delighted about it when I heard that. I smiled in my heart and was really glad. He was convinced with my explanation and said its good point. My answer was "convenience and user friendly" which exactly the same point as what Ming Jun and Angela said. Even Thomas had similar answer too.
When Mr Ang left the computer lab, the happiness and joy is beyond words. I went back to SAP lab with teammates and Mr Ho. Took group photo together. And that's really marked the end of FYP, beautifully.
When I knew I was attachment to NCS, I was
Although workplace is near but it required coding which I hate most. I strongly believe that I should hate her. She always helped her get the best. I really dislike that but I couldn’t do anything but just accept the fact. As thing don’t always go the way I want it to be. At that time, I tell myself, it’s time to learn from the hard way. At home, I have my family to help me. In school and outside, I always have friends to help me but I can’t depend on them forever. It really time for to me step out of my comfort zone. Not forgetting, I also tell myself 12 weeks will pass very fast. Just like what happen in FYP and time in NYP. Favourite phrase in NYP, “Before you know it, it’s over.”.
That’s why I was really glad that I survived through during my first week. Quoted from previous post, "I managed to survive through my first week of internship!" I'm now at my third week of internship already. Time still flies despite it boring or interesting. Let me tell you a little secret. I realized my dislike for work is reducing day by day, which also mean I'm beginning to like my work. –a big smile– I think it’s the environment and team colleagues over there that changed my point of views. Another few plus points are that it’s only 2 mrt station away, Friday ends at 5.30pm and dress code is smart causal!
Although always have late lunch which make me really hungry and eat at the coffee shop or industrial canteen which I saw a RAT. Gets to seat around a table with team colleague and eat together is nice. OIC even invited Kelvin and me to their celebration dinner at Senki (Japanese Restaurant) yesterday. Per pax is $35++, and OIC paid for it!
I was really lucky, somehow.
Thanks. (:
- Week 3 is coming to an end. Somehow I hope time will slow down.
